Pros:

Fair

Cons:

The view ftom our room 220 was not the best I can say. Beds are good and the room was clean. To improve : Maybe kettle could be in the room to boild water…and also towels in the sauna were missing... the distance with the Center is ok.

Pros:

Bárhová könnyedén el lehetett jutni a közeli megállóból.A reggeli bőséges volt és folyamatosan pótolták.

Cons:

Az ablak nélküli szoba több éjszaka esetén kicsit már zavaró.

Well recommended stay.
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent. Location- it's quite far from the center, suitable for example for visitors of Linnanmäki.

Cons:

Even after booking via booking.com you still need to fill in papers basically with the same data you already did earlier. A bit old fashioned.

Pros:

Zentrale Lage mit gut mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln zu erreichen., reichhaltiges Frühstück

Cons:

Sehr kleine Zimmer, keine einzige Toilette in der Lobby - Es gibt nur Toiletten auf den viel zu kleinen Hotelzimmern & das ist es was sich im Scandic Kallio unbedingt verbessern muss. Das ist ein NOGO, dass Gäste keine Toilette vorfinden, während sie in diesem Hotel warten. Außerdem ist dem Hotel, statt zu viele dunkle Farben, eine hellere und freundlichere Farbwahl zu empfehlen, z.B. apfelgrün und tannengrün sowie Waldtapete mit Sonnenschein.

Bra läge men det är förvånansvärt sunkigt för att vara Scandic
Pros:

Bra läge på hotellet och receptionspersonalen var trevlig och hjälpsam.

Cons:

Barnens extrasäng dvs en bäddsoffa var riktigt sliten, obekväm och gnisslig. Minsta rörelse i sängen skapade höga ljud som höll oss alla vakna. Dessutom var barnsängen obäddad när vi kom, vilket iofs löste sig när vi sa till. Men ändå trist att själv bädda när man betalat relativt mycket för rummet.
